Roof Garden Next to the Acropolis Museum

Roof Garden, Day and Night

On the top floor of a beautiful Neoclassical building in Koukaki, Balcony’s roof garden is what sets us apart. Open sky above the city, a view of the Acropolis Museum, and just steps from the monument itself, far from any noisy streets.

By day, it’s bright and relaxed, perfect for a coffee or a Mediterranean meal in the sun.

By night, soft lighting and atmosphere transform the roof garden into one of the most beautiful spots in Athens for dinner or drinks under the stars.
